I have an old back issue and was taking this for pain before, didnt know i was pregnant then. Im about 6 weeks now and really worried about what i took. Planning to ask my gynac asap but did anyone face a similar thing? feeling so guilty.
I am also suffering from bad body aches right now and my doctor said most strong painkillers aren't safe. Is tramadol something your doctor suggested, or are you just checking? I was told to stick to warm compresses and light stretching instead.
Actually, tramadol is an opioid and is generally avoided in pregnancy as it can cause complications and withdrawal symptoms in the newborn. You should never take it without a direct prescription from your gynac. If you are in pain, let your doctor prescribe a safe alternative.
Hey, honestly, tramadol is a strong painkiller and generally not safe during pregnancy unless your doctor specifically tells you to take it. Don't stress too much, but please avoid taking it on your own. For any pain, ask your gynac for a safer option!
Beta, do not take such strong English medicines during pregnancy, it can harm the baby. If you have pain, try a warm water bag or a gentle oil massage on your legs. Always ask your doctor before touching any such pills.
Personally, when I had severe back pain, my doctor strictly told me to avoid strong painkillers like tramadol and suggested paracetamol instead. I only take medicines that my gynac explicitly approves. Please ask your doctor before taking anything.
